☀️ Welcome to Our Summer Wellness Series!
As the warm summer months unfold, it's essential to focus on staying healthy and energized, especially for those navigating cancer treatment or recovery. In this Summer Wellness Series, we'll be sharing practical advice to help you thrive all summer long.
Our first tip is all about the importance of staying hydrated. Staying hydrated is crucial for overall health, especially for those undergoing cancer treatment, as it can help manage treatment side effects, maintain energy levels, and support bodily functions. Dehydration can happen fast! Look for signs like dry mouth, dizziness, and fatigue and consult with your healthcare providers if symptoms persist.
Tips to Stay Hydrated:
▪️Carry a Water Bottle: Always have a reusable water bottle on hand to make it easy to drink water throughout the day.
▪️Flavor Your Water: Add slices of fruits like lemon, lime, cucumber, or berries to make drinking water more enjoyable.
▪️Set Reminders: Use a smartphone app or set an alarm to remind yourself to drink water regularly.
▪️Eat Water-Rich Foods: Eat fruits and vegetables with a higher water content, such as watermelon, cucumbers, oranges, celery, cucumber, ice berg lettuce, and tomatoes!
